Koohii stories:

1) [bigloui] 2-2-2006(164): The march of women - against intimidation in the workplace - is pretty intimidating in itself!

2) [Danieru] 10-12-2007(64): Interesting that this kanji also has the meanings of "dignity" and "threaten." I can see how a march of women in Japan would be seen as intimidating by most men.

3) [Nekesu04] 12-11-2008(52): A one woman parade? How is that supposed to intimidate me?

4) [stephan] 3-10-2008(27): I use Grim Reaper instead of march for the primitive, because he's the one holding the scythe (see [360]). Now imagine a female Grim Reaper - that's even more intimidating!

5) [kaeru] 31-10-2008(25): A group of feminist WOMEN are MARCHING for their rights, theyre so ugly it's INTIMIDATING.
